When VAD nurse
Evie
narrowly escapes being killed in an air raid during the London Blitz, it propels her to make a life-changing decision to break free of her troubled and unhappy life. She escapes to the Norfolk countryside to start afresh, with a job at the newly opened Great Plumstead Hall hospital, and a wonderful new home at Rookery House.
The community of Great Plumstead welcomes more evacuees to the village - mothers and children bombed out of their London homes. Sisters

But when a patient arrives who knew her in her former life, Evie's new-found freedom and happiness is in danger. Will the secrets of Evie's past be revealed, and the problems from her old life return to trouble her once more?
